The 1995 Munster Senior Hurling Championship final was a hurling match played on 9 July 1995 at Semple Stadium, Thurles, County Tipperary. It was contested by Clare and Limerick. Clare claimed their first Munster Championship since 1932 and fourth ever, after beating Limerick on a scoreline of 1–17 to 0–11. Clare were leading the game by 1–5 to 0–7 at half-time.[1]
With the scores at 0–5 to 0–3 in Clare's favour in the first half, Davy Fitzgerald scored from a penalty five minutes before the break, crashing the ball high into the net at the town end before sprinting back to his goal-line. In 2005, this penalty goal came fifth in the Top 20 GAA Moments poll by the Irish public.[2] Clare were captained by Anthony Daly and managed by Ger Loughnane in his first year.[3]
Clare had defeated Cork in the semi-final by 2–13 to 3–09 to reach the final, while Limerick had defeated Tipperary by 0–16 to 0–15 in their semi-final.[4]
The match was screened live by RTÉ as part of The Sunday Game programme, with commentary by Ger Canning and analysis by Éamonn Cregan.
